  • We need a way to summon ChatGPT.
    Anyway:

    According to a report by ABC News, former President Donald Trump allegedly discussed potentially sensitive information about U.S. nuclear submarines with an Australian billionaire named Anthony Pratt, months after leaving the White House 1. Pratt then allegedly shared this information with scores of others, including more than a dozen foreign officials, several of his own employees, and a handful of journalists 12. The potential disclosure was reported to special counsel Jack Smith’s team as they investigated Trump’s alleged hoarding of classified documents at Mar-a-Lago 2.

    This report could shed further light on Trump’s handling of sensitive government secrets. Prosecutors and FBI agents have at least twice this year interviewed Pratt, who runs U.S.-based Pratt Industries, one of the world’s largest packaging companies







  • Sales tax is the most obvious example of adding to the cost I’ve been shown, but it’s everything. Here if there is a price on something that is the price you pay. Period.
    If I have €5 and the price on the shelf is €4.90 we are all good, and I don’t even need to know what country I’m in!

    But is is more than that, if I take my car in to be fixed, they have to agree every cost they want to charge me in advance at no point can anything cost me more than I expected and agreed to up front.
    Airline tickets, theatre tickets, hospital bills, TV ads, you name it, the price they state or advertise is what I pay, no ifs-no buts.
